VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/34358/

DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in FubarForum, which can be
exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.

The security issue is caused due to the database files being stored
with insecure permissions inside the "db" folder of the web root.
This can be exploited to gain knowledge of sensitive information by
downloading the files.

The security issue is reported in version 1.6. Other versions may
also be affected.

Note: Depending on the system configuration, the vendor supplied
".htaccess" file may mitigate the vulnerability.

Restrict access to the affected folder.
